New & Off-Plan Projects in Al Mairid
Off-plan activity in Al Mairid centres on branded waterfront living rather than the high-rise resort format found on Al Marjan Island. Mira Coral Bay, positioned directly on the Al Mairid coastline, is currently the district’s largest branded community under construction, offering apartments alongside beach-facing amenities and title deeds registered through the RAK Real Estate Regulatory Authority. Off-plan stock in the district spans studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments together with a smaller run of villas and townhouses, aimed at both long-term residents and investors seeking early-stage pricing ahead of Wynn Al Marjan Island’s 2027 opening nearby. Across Ras Al Khaimah, off-plan transactions account for approximately 85% of freehold sales by value, with Al Mairid representing the lower-density, family-oriented end of that pipeline.

Al Mairid Real Estate: Prices, Payment Plans & Property Types
Prices & Payment Plans in Al Mairid
Al Mairid trades at a discount to Ras Al Khaimah's prime waterfront benchmark on Al Marjan Island, where prime and branded seafront stock commands roughly AED 2,400-2,700 per square foot. As a lower-density, master-planned district, Al Mairid's pricing sits closer to the emirate's established-community range, giving buyers a more accessible entry point onto the same coastline. Off-plan payment plans in the district typically follow a construction-linked structure, with a down payment at reservation, staged instalments through the build and a post-handover component; a 4% registration fee is payable to the RAK Real Estate Regulatory Authority on completion of the sale.
New Launches in Al Mairid 2026
New launches in Al Mairid in 2026 are concentrated around Mira Coral Bay and a small number of adjacent branded schemes, reflecting the wider emirate's shift toward differentiated, lifestyle-led product rather than pure resort towers. Around 19,300 new residential units are projected across Ras Al Khaimah between 2025 and 2030, with branded residences expected to account for roughly 25% of that upcoming freehold supply, and Al Mairid positioned to capture a share of the lower-rise, villa-inclusive portion of that pipeline.
Apartments, Villas & Townhouses in Al Mairid
Apartments in Al Mairid range from studios to three-bedroom layouts, with two-bedroom units the most actively traded format and three-bedroom stock limited by the district's low-rise building profile. Villas and residential plots are also available, including freehold land parcels approved for ground-plus-one construction, suited to buyers who want to build a private family home rather than buy into a managed development. Fully furnished, branded units generally command rental premiums of 15-25% over comparable unfurnished stock in the same buildings.

About Al Mairid
Al Mairid is a waterfront district on Ras Al Khaimah's Arabian Gulf coast, bordered by Al Maareedh Street, Ahmed Bin Majid Road and Al Mamourah Street, and linked directly to Al Manama–Ras Al Khaimah Road (E18). It sits within the wider Ras Al Khaimah city master community alongside Al Nakheel and Al Mamourah, and is a designated freehold zone under the RAK Real Estate Regulatory Authority. Its flagship scheme, Mira Coral Bay, is the largest branded waterfront community under construction on the coastline.
Life here has a distinctly quieter rhythm than Ras Al Khaimah's resort clusters. Horseshoe-shaped bays and two public beaches sit alongside a private stretch of sand reserved for guests of the Hilton Ras Al Khaimah Resort & Spa, while low-rise blocks share the district with older Khaleeji-style villas and gardens. It suits families wanting beachside living without high-rise density, with mosques, cafés and everyday shops woven into residential streets rather than one retail strip.
Per-square-foot pricing in Al Mairid sits well below Al Marjan Island's prime waterfront range of roughly AED 2,400-2,700, reflecting its lower-rise character. The district reaches Al Marjan Island and the Wynn resort site in around 10 minutes and the central business district in around 12 minutes, with Dubai reachable in 75-90 minutes via the E311. That mix of coastal access and end-user demand underpins Ras Al Khaimah-wide rental yields of 6-8% and forecast double-digit apartment price growth.

Al Mairid Location
Easy Access to Dubai’s Key Destinations
Al Mairid sits on Ras Al Khaimah's coastal rim, directly connected to Al Manama–Ras Al Khaimah Road (E18), which links onward to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) for journeys south to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Ras Al Khaimah has no metro system, so travel beyond the immediate district is road-based, with Ras Al Khaimah International Airport serving the emirate directly and Dubai International Airport reachable via the E311 corridor.

Why Invest in Al Mairid
Ras Al Khaimah's freehold market, including Al Mairid, is forecast to see a further 17-21% year-on-year rise in apartment prices through 2026, building on two consecutive years of double-digit gains as coastal supply remains constrained relative to demand. Gross rental yields on freehold apartments in the emirate's waterfront communities run at 6-8%, with fully furnished branded units achieving rental premiums of 15-25% above unfurnished comparables. The single largest infrastructure driver is the USD 5.1 billion Wynn Al Marjan Island resort, roughly 10 minutes from Al Mairid and scheduled to open in 2027, alongside an airport expansion set to roughly triple passenger capacity as Ras Al Khaimah targets 3-3.5 million annual visitors by 2030. For buyers, that combination of a lower entry point than Al Marjan Island, zero property, income or capital gains tax, and a master-planned, lower-density setting supports both steady rental income and medium-term capital appreciation as the wider district matures.
Infrastructure and Everyday Life in Al Mairid
Al Mairid combines beachfront leisure with the everyday convenience of Ras Al Khaimah's city core, all within a short drive of the district's residential streets.
Things to Do
Residents have direct access to two public beaches and a private stretch of sand reserved for guests of the Hilton Ras Al Khaimah Resort & Spa, making waterside walks and swimming part of daily life rather than a weekend outing. Al Hamra Golf Club’s 18-hole course, set across four water lagoons, and the Al Hamra Marina & Yacht Club, offering sailing lessons and yacht charters, are both a short drive away for residents wanting golf or watersports beyond the beach itself.
Education
Schooling in Ras Al Khaimah is regulated by the Ras Al Khaimah Department of Knowledge (RAKDOK) rather than Dubai’s KHDA, and Al Mairid sits within reach of the emirate’s main school clusters in Al Nakheel and Al Hamra. Options include Ras Al Khaimah Academy, offering the British Curriculum with an International Baccalaureate pathway, and the International School of Choueifat, established in 1986, alongside CBSE and Indian curriculum schools serving the district’s expatriate families.
Healthcare
Everyday medical needs are covered locally, with Marhaba Medical Center, Thumbay Clinic RAK, Shifa Al Jazeerah Medical Centre and Al Zahrawi Hospital all within around 10 minutes of Al Mairid. For more specialised or emergency care, RAK Hospital in neighbouring Al Qurm offers a fuller range of hospital-level services within a short drive of the district.
Where to Dine Out
Dining in and around Al Mairid runs from casual beachfront spots to hotel fine dining. Pesto Ristorante serves Italian food within the district, while Vida Churrascaria & Bar, next to the Hilton Ras Al Khaimah Resort & Spa, specialises in Latin American grill. Sand Bar and Cider Bay round out the beachfront lounge scene for residents wanting a sundowner without leaving the coastline.
Best Places for Shopping
Manar Mall, around 13 minutes away, is the district’s principal retail destination, combining international retail brands with a waterfront promenade, cinema and dining hall. Al Hamra Mall offers a further shopping and leisure option a short drive from Al Mairid, while Al Naeem Mall provides an alternative for residents based closer to Ras Al Khaimah’s central business district.
